Indigenous Native TikTok Compilation

[@deaganachomarunacathasaigh4344]

I'm a Native of Ireland. I have nothing but respect and admiration for a Native Americans. Especially the Choctaw, Navajo and Cherokee. These Tribes donated massive sums of money to Clans in Ireland during The Famine and we will be forever greatful. We are also willing to help the Native Americans in any way we can

[@GreatFrostHawk]

I've always especially liked the one that starts with "her eyes are blue" because it doesn't put down either eye color. Both were described kindly, poetically. I've been trying to look for this one for a while as it was the very first Native/Indigenous Tik Tok I ever saw that encouraged me to _really_ listen more than before.

[@camilaalmeida3511]

I used to hate my facial features, specially my eyes, but learning more about my roots changed my view on it, im proud of my indigenous features.

Same here. I have white skin but my face, eyes, and jawline are indigenous due to my mother's blood. I used to think I looked weird but now I embrace the fact that I look like my great grandma, rest in peace.

[@imnotsure8838]

As a native Finn (full) I love to see native Americans celebrate their culture. I have moved to America recently and love the natives near me 💕

[@Summer.12Girl]

I’m not indigenous but I’m Australian, born and raised, and it shocks me how little people celebrate their indigenous cultures compared to Australia. Speeches at school assemblies will always start with an acknowledgment of country, even if it’s just a few words. In primary school when I was younger we had choral festivals where we would sing the national anthem in a traditional aboriginal tongue. I know that some people are celebrating their culture on TikTok but it honestly surprises me how little it’s incorporated in everyday life, especially while knowing our colonists were just as bad with killing the indigenous and taking them away from their families.

[@caringdevotionals2952]

Natives MASSACRED not only europeans but also other natives. Commanches were widely known for their warlike nature and torture of almost anyone they captured. Natives killed men, women, and children, regardless if they were a direct threat or not. Natives were not/are not innocent. They are people, just like everyone else. They are just as capable of injustice and violence as any other group of people on this planet.

[@idiosyncraticmushroom3030]

I'm mixed, dad's native and mom's white, and because of where we live (an upscale, "better" neighborhood in a peaceful part of the northeast US), we haven't really been able to connect with our culture because there simply aren't any of us around where I'm about. These compilations, along with visits up north to where my family comes from (we are Wabanaki, also known as Penobscot), have really helped me feel more in touch with my heritage as well as let me know about the various issues scattered about that I otherwise wouldn't have known about due to the somewhat colonized education system (though, I'll admit, I've been lucky in having some history teachers who worked to teach me and my fellow students what actually happened as opposed to the colonized tale). I'd just like to thank these content creators, both in this compilation and in others like it, for putting this content out there so people like me can learn more about their culture and heritage as well as just generally intake content made by fellow Indigenous people. Peace and love

13:29 That's such a cool story! I remember I found a local story while doing research for a "names in your hometown" history paper about the origin of Mt. St. Helens, Mt. Hood, and Mt Adams. (There's more to the story in the beginning too, if you want to look it up!) Basically, two sons of the Great Spirit Sahale, Wy'east and Klickitat (or Pahto) both fell in love with a beautiful woman, Loowit (or Loowitlatkla). She couldn't choose between them, so the two brothers fought, destroying numerous villages and forests in the process. In his anger, Sahale smote them, but he still loved them, and raised up a mountain in memorial where each one fell. In Loowit's place was Mt St. Helens, with a perfectly symmetrical cone beautifully wrapped in snow (that is, before it blew its top in 1980). In Klickitat's place was Mt. Adams, bent low as he mourns seeing beautiful Loowit wrapped in snow. And in Wy'east's place was Mt. Hood, still showing him lifting his head to the sky in pride.

Just wish we would learn more and protect more our history and lineage. I know, I believe it's in the southern and central parts of PR, there are families trying to conserve and get out a lot of our Taino history and I love it. I know my grandma from my mother's side, she has lineage and if you see her in person you see " India Taina" and I love it❤❤❤. My mom would tell me that her great grandmother was a native Taina❤

I'm a Iñupiat (Indigenous to Alaska) descendant on my father's side, my mother's side is mixed Euro (West Coast Euro, mostly French) but.. I've always struggled with my identity because I don't have a connection to the community because of my adoption.. My bio father lied to the social worker on purpose here in the upper United States and hid our Indigenous side of our family so I would get adopted by a distant relative, my adoptive mother and father.. This is one decision I've never approved of, and is the hardest thing I've had to deal with recently. ICWA did not protect me, and so I lost the one chance I would have had to grow up with an Indigenous family.. I am scared to claim that I am Inupiaq because of what happened.. 2 sides of my family are colonizing French while the other sides of my family are Iñupiat , African, West Asian and Indian (from India).. This is my story, I am my ancestor's greatest dream that was never supposed to come true... For so many reasons, I feel incredibly invalidated with my identity, I don't have a connection to my culture.. I wish there was more awareness for these issues..

It's really important to remember you can't identify Native Americans by how they look. It was millions of different cultures and several races mixed together before colonization, and the skin tone mixing has gotten only stronger after colonization.

[@Nobody-ig2wd]

No there's people who look distinctly native like the on 1:13 for example, but like you said it depends on the tribes and of the different regions in the Americas. Inuit and Northern Canadian natives look like people from Siberia, they have lighter skin obviously because it's cold and look way different from Indigenous people of Southwest USA and Mexico.

[@Nobody-ig2wd]

What people think of when you say "Native American" looks like most of the popular tribes in the US, brown or tan with reddish tint skin, straight hair and a nose with a slight bump to it.

[@afroartist1086]

@@g9ez567 Technically they were two races, one group moved into the Americas from across the land bridge in between Alaska and Kamchatka at the time while another known as "Population Y" moved in from Australia. Australians are Melanesians. Even so I think it's accurate to overall describe them as ono distinct people on cultural lines.

learned that the area i was born & the area i grew up in had a lot of native tribes; but specifically "Potawatomi" caught my attention, as that was the camp i attended when i was younger. and the area i live now, a tribe called Chesapeake lived here, which is also the name of a few of our roads and a city near me. The Lumbee tribe also lived around these parts. what's sad is that there are no Potawatomi people living in the United States anymore. i'll be researching these 3 tribes and looking into their history, it saddens me that these people were driven out of their lands (and slaughtered) so viciously that none remain in their own native land.

Even if it’s tiny I still feel connected to that part of myself, and connected to whoever my ancestor was. I’ve done a good amount of research into my family tree but still have no idea who they could be. Also, there’s just something about Indigenous music that makes me emotional.

[@Nonsequitoria2010]

11:43 Something I think we get too angry with the situation to realize is that these young white boys who know exactly nothing about anyone but their immediate family haven't chosen to be this way. The knowledge has been intentionally kept from multiple generations of European descendants, until we no longer knew there was a problem at all. We are taught and trained specifically to believe we are superior, and that those things that happened in the past really weren't all that bad, and that it was SOOOOOO long ago that it should hardly matter anymore. It's not an accident. It's not a coincidence. The truth has been stolen on purpose from non-native children, which is its own sick kind of oppression. It only multiplies the atrocities our ancestors committed, and most of us can't even see how it wounds us as much as it wounds our native neighbors. Having to relearn how to be a decent human being in your 20's, and realizing that the authority figures you trusted aren't interested in joining you, is exhausting. It's a system that was built to give white children the advantage; but in the long run, it's destroyed us in ways no one could have predicted. Yes, these fancy white boys are stereotypically clueless, but they didn't wake up on their 13th birthdays and actively choose to be. They've been artfully styled by generations to be above thinking too hard about most things. But the more we publicly converse about the reality of America's anti-native history, the more change we will see in their children and grandchildren. If we keep talking, we can give them back the voice that's been taken from them. Then they can scream and shout along with the rest of us, and our voice will be tenfold. Our forebears have cheated us all of so much. I like to hope that some of them might not have if they knew what grief they would land their far-off descendants with... But I doubt it.

[@m.paquet1303]

Every single nation on this planet has been at war with their neighbours. Yes it is not good what people have done. Should we hate others for their ancestors.... The people today have not done what their ancestors have done. Should I hate either side of my ancestry. This is not the solution I am part french and part mi'kmaw. I don't hate either side nor try to have one side pick on the other. This is not a solution. It is good to know history that we may not repeat what was done for it was evil.
